Our public schools are our most cherished insti­ tutions. They are the cradle of our Republic, for here the coming generations learn the principles of our form of government. While attending school today is much easier than the old days, yet it is the same old school days of long ago. Time was when walking miles to school in the rural districts was not uncommon, while today bus transportation takes the kiddies to school and brings them home. This is as it should be, for progress must go with the schools as it does with business. Back to school children.

MancluTs Furniture Store Gets a Break During tie early part of August Robert Manehel, of Manchel's Fur nituie store in Grants Pass, found! it necessary to make a business trip to Portland While there, a I Urge shipment of beautiful fur­ niture arrived from the east as- ■ signed to wholesale houses in Port­ land. During this emergency, the wholesale houses do not have any trouble in getting rid of their stocks, and they try to distribute it around to their customers. How ever, when one of them happens in when the goods are on the floor, the customer gets a better selec- • tion and more goods, because he is on the ground floor. This happened to Mr. Manehel. and he brought home one of the largest shipments this popular store has evei had. and the goods are now on display. If any of our valley people need furniture we suggest that they shop the Manehel Furniture store now while their stock is one of the largest they have evei had.
